`@nyte-ai/ui/preview-card` re-exports the Base UI namespace unchanged. There is no Nyte styling on
this subpath; the consumer owns every class, StyleX style, and layout decision. Base UI owns the
interaction model, keyboard handling, focus management, and ARIA below.

## Usage guidelines [#usage-guidelines]

* **Protect screen reader users' current context**: Exposing each preview to screen readers would force users through its contents before they could continue through the page, repeatedly disrupting their current context. Keep the link as the only accessible interface and include all previewed information at its destination.
* **Keep popup content supplementary**: Avoid placing unique or essential information in the popup unless it is also available on the linked page. For the reason above, preview card content is not touch, keyboard or screen reader navigable. It acts as a visual [progressive enhancement](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Progressive_Enhancement) for sighted mouse and keyboard users only.

## Anatomy [#anatomy]

Import the component and assemble its parts:

```jsx title="Anatomy"
import { PreviewCard } from '@base-ui/react/preview-card';

<PreviewCard.Root>
  <PreviewCard.Trigger />
  <PreviewCard.Portal>
    <PreviewCard.Backdrop />
    <PreviewCard.Positioner>
      <PreviewCard.Popup>
        <PreviewCard.Arrow />
        <PreviewCard.Viewport />
      </PreviewCard.Popup>
    </PreviewCard.Positioner>
  </PreviewCard.Portal>
</PreviewCard.Root>;
```

## Examples [#examples]

### Detached triggers [#detached-triggers]

A preview card can be controlled by a trigger located either inside or outside the `<PreviewCard.Root>` component.
For simple, one-off interactions, place the `<PreviewCard.Trigger>` inside `<PreviewCard.Root>`, as shown in the example at the top of this page.

However, if defining the preview card's content next to its trigger is not practical, you can use a detached trigger.
This involves placing the `<PreviewCard.Trigger>` outside of `<PreviewCard.Root>` and linking them with a `handle` created by the `PreviewCard.createHandle()` function.

The imperative methods on the handle, such as `open()` and `close()`, require a `<PreviewCard.Root>` using the same handle to be mounted.
Calls made while no root is attached to the handle — before one mounts, or after it unmounts — are ignored. Each time a root mounts, it starts from fresh state: a call made while no root was attached is not replayed, and no open state carries over from a previous mount.

```jsx title="Detached triggers"
const demoPreviewCard = PreviewCard.createHandle();

// @highlight
// @highlight-text "handle={demoPreviewCard}"
<PreviewCard.Trigger handle={demoPreviewCard} href="#">
  Link
</PreviewCard.Trigger>

// @highlight
// @highlight-text "handle={demoPreviewCard}"
<PreviewCard.Root handle={demoPreviewCard}>
  ...
</PreviewCard.Root>;
```

### Multiple triggers [#multiple-triggers]

A single preview card can be opened by multiple trigger elements.
You can achieve this by using the same `handle` for several detached triggers, or by placing multiple `<PreviewCard.Trigger>` components inside a single `<PreviewCard.Root>`.

```jsx title="Multiple triggers within the Root part"
<PreviewCard.Root>
  <PreviewCard.Trigger href="#">Trigger 1</PreviewCard.Trigger>
  <PreviewCard.Trigger href="#">Trigger 2</PreviewCard.Trigger>
  ...
</PreviewCard.Root>
```

```jsx title="Multiple detached triggers"
const demoPreviewCard = PreviewCard.createHandle();

<PreviewCard.Trigger handle={demoPreviewCard} href="#">
  Trigger 1
</PreviewCard.Trigger>

<PreviewCard.Trigger handle={demoPreviewCard} href="#">
  Trigger 2
</PreviewCard.Trigger>

<PreviewCard.Root handle={demoPreviewCard}>
  ...
</PreviewCard.Root>
```

The preview card can render different content depending on which trigger opened it.
This is achieved by passing a `payload` to the `<PreviewCard.Trigger>` and using the function-as-a-child pattern in `<PreviewCard.Root>`.

The payload can be strongly typed by providing a type argument to the `createHandle()` function:

```jsx title="Detached triggers with payload"
// @highlight
const demoPreviewCard = PreviewCard.createHandle<{ title: string }>();

// @highlight
// @highlight-text "payload"
<PreviewCard.Trigger handle={demoPreviewCard} payload={{ title: 'Trigger 1' }} href="#">
  Trigger 1
</PreviewCard.Trigger>

// @highlight
// @highlight-text "payload"
<PreviewCard.Trigger handle={demoPreviewCard} payload={{ title: 'Trigger 2' }} href="#">
  Trigger 2
</PreviewCard.Trigger>

<PreviewCard.Root handle={demoPreviewCard}>
  {({ payload }) => ( // @highlight-text "payload"
    <PreviewCard.Portal>
      <PreviewCard.Positioner sideOffset={8}>
        <PreviewCard.Popup>
          {payload !== undefined && ( // @highlight-text "payload"
            <span>
              Preview card opened by {payload.title} {/* @highlight-text "payload" */}
            </span>
          )}
        </PreviewCard.Popup>
      </PreviewCard.Positioner>
    </PreviewCard.Portal>
  )}
</PreviewCard.Root>
```

### Controlled mode with multiple triggers [#controlled-mode-with-multiple-triggers]

You can control the preview card's open state externally using the `open` and `onOpenChange` props on `<PreviewCard.Root>`.
This allows you to manage the preview card's visibility based on your application's state.
When using multiple triggers, you have to manage which trigger is active with the `triggerId` prop on `<PreviewCard.Root>` and the `id` prop on each `<PreviewCard.Trigger>`.

Note that there is no separate `onTriggerIdChange` prop.
Instead, the `onOpenChange` callback receives an additional argument, `eventDetails`, which contains the trigger element that initiated the state change.

### Animating the Preview Card [#animating-the-preview-card]

You can animate a preview card as it moves between different trigger elements.
This includes animating its position, size, and content.

#### Position and Size [#position-and-size]

To animate the preview card's position, apply CSS transitions to the `left`, `right`, `top`, and `bottom` properties of the **Positioner** part.
To animate its size, transition the `width` and `height` of the **Popup** part.

#### Content [#content]

The preview card also supports content transitions.
This is useful when different triggers display different content within the same preview card.

To enable content animations, wrap the content in the `<PreviewCard.Viewport>` part.
This part provides features to create direction-aware animations.
It renders a `div` with a `data-activation-direction` attribute that indicates the new trigger's position relative to the previous one. The value is a space-separated set of up to two tokens (one per axis) — `left` or `right` for the horizontal axis and `up` or `down` for the vertical axis (for example, `right down`). Match a single token with the `~=` attribute selector, such as `[data-activation-direction~='right']`.

Inside the `<PreviewCard.Viewport>`, the content is further wrapped in `div`s with data attributes to help with styling:

* `data-current`: The currently visible content when no transitions are present or the incoming content.
* `data-previous`: The outgoing content during a transition.

You can use these attributes to style the enter and exit animations.

## API reference [#api-reference]

### Root [#root]

Groups all parts of the preview card.
Doesn't render its own HTML element.

### createHandle [#createhandle]

Creates a new handle to connect a PreviewCard.Root with detached PreviewCard.Trigger components.

**Return Value:**

```tsx
type ReturnValue = PreviewCard.Handle<Payload>;
```

### Handle [#handle]

Controls a PreviewCard imperatively and associates detached `PreviewCard.Trigger` components with
a `PreviewCard.Root`. Create one with `PreviewCard.createHandle()` and pass it to the `handle`
prop of the root and of any triggers rendered outside of it.

The imperative methods take effect only while a root using this handle is mounted; calls made
before a root attaches (or after it unmounts) are ignored.

**Properties:**

| Property | Type      | Modifiers | Description                                                                                          |
| :------- | :-------- | :-------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| isOpen   | `boolean` | readonly  | Whether the preview card is currently open. Returns `false` while no root is attached to the handle. |

**Methods:**

```typescript
function open(triggerId: string): void;
```

Opens the preview card and associates it with the trigger with the given id.

This method should only be called in an event handler or an effect (not during rendering).

```typescript
function close(): void;
```

Closes the preview card.

This method should only be called in an event handler or an effect (not during rendering).
